Night Walk By The Creek

Max says the weather is really good now and since he shifted office, he has been home rather early and so one night, we decided that we will all go for a walk around the creek... Ace was mighty excited and even wanted to wear his policeman jacket lor.. i dunno what gave him the idea that this jacket is windproof and will keep him warm lor.. wahahaha...

Just like 5-10 min away from our house, you can see this beautiful scenery....

This is the Dubai Creek. It is like the Singapore River but it is a creek.. not a river... (dun ask me wat is the difference lah.. i dunno.. you can google for it if you want.. haha) anyway, one of the tourist attractions here is this Dhow Cruise.. where you eat dinner on board a boat on the creek.. So this stretch that we are walking along is where these boats are parked.. we saw a really beautiful boat and everything is glass lor.. so pretty! From outside looking in.. it looked so.... cosy.. so beautiful...

It is called the Bateux... But leh, Max says his colleague says tat even though it looks nice right... but when you are inside.. because the lights are bright inside and it is dark outside, you cannot raelly see the scenery outside.. so tat is bad lor...

But we took pic of menu for reference anyway.. and to our surprise, they have alot of vegeterian selections.. yipee!

Here's a close up of the inside...

The rest of the boats are more like this one here.. brightly lit with lights...


Ace posing next to a statue tat we saw... notice his white shoes? Those are the shoes he wears for school PE. According to Ace, they are his sports shoes.. so he has to wear them whenever he is going to walk alot or do exercise.. so leh, he insisted on wearing them when we said we are going for a walk.. wahahaha...


And then we saw this strange one with NO dinner tables..just sofas all around.. I guess it is for just chilling out together or wat...

Anyway, it got quite cold and Ace complained that he was tired.. so we turned around and walked back home:)

All in all, a very pleasant experience and I told Max we should do this more often. But my son quickly said, "I don't like to walk.. very tiring.. I dun want to do this anymore..."

PS: This little boy hor.. walk half hour slowly also NEED to drink 100 plus.. 100 plus is mostly sugar lor! Heng he is willing to share one can among three of us...
